    Honoring God in all the areas of his life had the unexpected result of uniquely preparing David to kill the giant Goliath.

    And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field. 1 Samuel 17:44 It was as if the sheriff had never come back to fight the battle in “High Noon,” and a local had saved the town.

    When Saul made mistakes in judgment or sinned, he had the pattern of making things hard for himself by overlooking them or blaming others instead of coming back to the heart of the matter and doing the simple things God wants most.

    And Saul answered, God do so and more also: for thou shalt surely die, Jonathan. 1 Samuel 14:44 30 Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God. 31 So Samuel turned again ...read more

    If we truly think we’re better than another, we must demonstrate it by controlling ourselves, not controlling our neighbor.

Unless they are men or women of God, they’ll tell you to (2) every time.” -Chuck Swindoll (1) = carnality (2) = strike I A Subtle Temptation (1-4) A. When we really want to ...read more

    based on 41 ratings
     | 7,839 views

    David’s prayer in 1 Chronicles 29.10-19 as a model for our prayers during times of success.

    The great king David was about to give up his throne, so he calls the congregation together and prays. I think that prayer has implications to us today 1. The first thing we notice in the pray is that David gives credit where credit is due (vs. 10-13) - David had a great reign; he defeated Saul, ...read more

    If we choose to live as if God is not real in our lives, we may commit sins we too will regret for life.

    Introduction: David was a man who loved God, a man after God’s own heart. He sinned, and it was intensified because of who he was and how he mishandled it. But it was just sin, an act of disobedience he came later to regret with bitter tears. And unless we take heed (1 Corinthians 10:12) to his ...read more
